(C) Components relating to employee compensation and working conditions in the determination of the Remuneration Policy
The Policy is made up of tools and logics, applied to the entire company population, aimed at attracting, motivating and retaining people with the professional qualities necessary to contribute to the defnition of the Company's growth strategy and to the strengthening of the long-term interests and sustainability of GVS. It is based on the principles of fairness, equal opportunities, meritocracy and competitiveness in relation to the market.
The defnition of the remuneration of the company population takes into consideration specifc criteria, including the comparison with the external market and the internal equity of the company, the characteristics of the role and the responsibilities assigned, as well as the distinctive skills of the people, always with a view to maximum objectivity, in order to avoid any form of discrimination.
The remuneration package ofered to all employees includes various benefts, including the use of company cars, telephones, computers and health cover. The benefts ofered by GVS to its employees are linked to the professional category to which they belong, regardless of the type of contract (fxed-term, permanent; full-time, part-time) and follow guidelines applied at international level, with possible variations depending on the local policy of the country of reference.
The remuneration of employees holding managerial positions consists of a fxed component, valued according to the above criteria, and a variable component, aimed at rewarding the achievement of specifc economic, fnancial and qualitative objectives.
GVS also ensures a safe and functional working environment: in GVS plants and commercial ofces, procedures are applied to protect the health and safety of workers.
(D) Independent experts potentially involved in the preparation of the Remuneration Policy
The Remuneration Policy may be prepared with the assistance of an external consultant to gather information on market practices regarding remuneration policies, verifying in advance that the consultant complies with independence requirements that ensure independent judgement.
When preparing the Remuneration Policy, the Company used the services of the independent expert Willis Towers Watson to revise the fxed and variable components of remuneration in line with the best practices adopted in the Italian and foreign markets.

It shall be paid up to limits established.
The principal changes to the Remuneration Policy approved at the 27 April 2021 Shareholders' Meeting are:
- the updating of the MBO Plan through the introduction of a new fnancial KPI;
- the adjustment of the fxed component of the remuneration of certain Key Managers.
It should be noted that none of these changes were made as a result of the vote taken at the 27 April 2021 Shareholders' Meeting. It should be noted that the Remuneration Policy submitted to the Shareholders' Meeting held on 27 April 2021 was approved with the favourable vote of 88.056% of those in attendance and, at that meeting, no questions or comments were asked.
(F) Description of policies on fxed and variable components of remuneration
The Remuneration Policy establishes that:
- (a) non-executive directors of the Company are entitled to fxed remuneration; while
- (b) executive directors and Key Managers are entitled to a mixed remuneration, with a fxed component and a variable component.
Considering the purpose and criteria pursued by the Remuneration Policy, the remuneration of Directors and Key Managers is defned as follows.
Non-executive Directors
The remuneration payable to the non-executive directors of the Company in ofce is determined as a fxed amount and is commensurate with the commitment required, also in relation to participation in Board Committees. The remuneration of these directors is not linked either to economic results or to specifc objectives of the Company and they are not recipients of any incentive plan.
The fxed remuneration payable to the non-executive directors of the Company in ofce was determined by the Shareholders and the Board of Directors on 13 March 2020 and consists of the amounts (which may be aggregated) set out below:

The remuneration of the executive directors Mario Saccone and Matteo Viola is made up, net of the remuneration received by way of manager, as follows:
- a) Fixed component: (i) Euro 20,000.00, on an annual basis, as director, in addition to the reimbursement of expenses; (ii) with reference to the remuneration connected to the powers conferred on them, such remuneration is understood to be included in the remuneration paid to them on the basis of their executive employment relationship;
- b) Short-, medium- and long-term variable component: with reference to the remuneration connected with the powers conferred on them, this remuneration is understood to be included in the remuneration paid to them on the basis of their executive employment relationship.
Key Managers
The Company has identifed the following as Key Managers:
- Mario Saccone (Executive Director and Chief Financial Ofcer);
- Matteo Viola (Executive Director and Chief Operating Ofcer);
- Luca Querzè (Deputy Chairman Science & Development);
- Luca Zanini (Deputy Chairman Healthcare & Life Sciences);
- Pierre Dizier (Deputy Chairman Health & Safety); and
- Paola Musuraca (Director of Human Resources).
The remuneration of Key Managers is made up as follows:
- a) Fixed component: overall fxed remuneration (indicated in aggregate form), on an annual basis, equal to Euro 1,230,000;
- b) Short-term variable component: KM MBO Plan; and
- c) Medium/long-term variable component: 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan.
2020-2022 Performance Share Plan
On 13 March 2020, the Shareholders' Meeting approved an incentive plan called the "GVS 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan" (the "2020-2022 Performance Share Plan"), which is designed to provide incentive to and retain the Group's key resources. As of the date of the Report, the Board of Directors has identifed as benefciaries of the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan, among others, the Chief Executive Ofcer Massimo Scagliarini, the executive directors Marco Scagliarini, Mario Saccone and Matteo Viola, the other Key Managers and other employees of the Company, as well as additional benefciaries to be identifed in the future.
The 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan provides for the grant to benefciaries of a conditional, free of charge and non-transferable right by inter vivos deed to receive, at the end of a vesting period set at 31 December 2022, up to a maximum of a total of 1,200,000 ordinary shares of the Company, subject to ongoing relationships with Group companies and in relation to the achievement of certain performance targets at consolidated level in terms of Earning per Share (which has a weight of 50% in determining the total number of shares that can be allocated), Cash Conversion (which has a weight of 30%) and Total Shareholder Return (which has a weight of 20%).
The shares to service the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan will be derived in part from treasury shares held from time to time in the Company's portfolio and in part from one or more free share capital increases pursuant to Art. 2349, frst paragraph, of the Civil Code, for the execution of which a specifc proxy has been conferred on the Board of Directors pursuant to Art. 2443 of the Civil Code, for a maximum of Euro 12,000.00 with the issue of a maximum of 1,200,000 new ordinary shares of GVS.
The 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan provides that the shares granted to each benefciary are subject to a restriction on their availability from the date of their actual delivery. In particular, the Chief Executive Ofcer will be required to maintain this restriction for two years for a number of shares equal to 50% of the shares granted to him under the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan, while the other executive directors and/or Key Managers will be required to maintain this restriction for one year for a number of shares equal to 50% of the shares granted to them under the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan.
(a) The following table shows the incidence of the variable component of the remuneration of executive directors and other Key Managers deriving from the 2020- 2022 Performance Share Plan on the total annual remuneration due to them:
(b) the variable component of the Chief Executive Ofcer's remuneration arising from the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan, upon achievement of the assigned targets, represents a variable percentage ranging between approximately 22% and 29% of total annual remuneration (which includes the fxed remuneration and the various variable
(c) the variable component of the remuneration of the executive directors Marco Scagliarini, Mario Saccone and Matteo Viola and of the other Key Managers deriving from the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan, upon achievement of the assigned targets, represents a variable percentage ranging between approximately 14% and 36% of the total annual remuneration (which includes fxed remuneration and the
- components); and
- various variable components) to which they are entitled.

MBO Plans
The Board of Directors approved a management by objectives incentive plan (the "MBO Plan") for the Chief Executive Ofcer Massimo Scagliarini and the other executive directors and Key Managers, under which these directors and KMs are entitled to receive an annual incentive whose amount is commensurate with the achievement of annual (individual and group) performance targets and Group Strategic Annual Objectives. These objectives include objectives of a non-fnancial nature, such as those related to ESG and sustainability.
The weight of these objectives is specifed in the table below and is diferent for the CEO, KMs with responsibility for staf functions (CFO, COO, Director of Human Resources and VP Science & Development) and KMs with commercial responsibility (the VPs of the business divisions).

This MBO Plan was drawn up on the basis of the evidence emerging from a specifc external benchmarking activity carried out by the independent company Willis Towers Watson in line with the best practices adopted in the Italian and foreign markets of the sector.
In detail, the Group Performance Objective (Objective A) is linked to the achievement of certain performance targets for two fnancial indicators identifed in the Company's Adjusted EBITDA (Organic) and Total Revenue (Organic). The achievement of these indicators determines the actual % of target achievement calculated by linear interpolation. The threshold values are represented in the following diagram.
| % Achievement of target Turnover |
% Achievement of objective |
% Achievement of EBITDA target |
% Achievement of objective |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 88 % | 0 % | < 89 % | 0 % |
| 88 % | 33 % | 89 % | 33 % |
| 100 % | 100 % | 100 % | 100 % |
| 112 % | 150% | 108% | 150% |
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
The weight of the annual performance objective and the Annual Strategic Objectives for Massimo Scagliarini is broken down as follows:
| Name | Group Annual Performance Objective |
Group Strategic Annual Objectives |
|---|---|---|
| Massimo Scagliarini | 80% | 20% |
In particular, the Group's Annual Performance Objective is linked to the result of two fnancial parameters, each with the weighting shown in the diagram below:
| Group Annual Performance Objective | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Group Annual Performance Objective |
Weight Turnover target (Organic) |
||
| Massimo Scagliarini | 40% | 40% |
The achievement of the target result is therefore linked to the attainment of the Adjusted EBITDA Target (Organic) and the Turnover Target (Organic) within thresholds defned according to the diagram below.
| % Achievement of target Turnover |
% Achievement of objective |
% Achievement of EBITDA target |
% Achievement of objective |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 88 % | 0 % | < 89 % | 0 % |
| 88 % | 33 % | 89 % | 33 % |
| 100 % | 100 % | 100 % | 100 % |
| 112 % | 150% | 108% | 150% |
The target achievement value is tied to the actual % of achievement identifed by linear interpolation.
The MBO component linked to the achievement of the Strategic Annual Objectives is determined on the basis of the actual percentage of achievement.
In any case, the amount of the MBO to be paid annually may not exceed Euro 930,000.
RATIO OF MBO COMPONENT TO TOTAL REMUNERATION
The incidence of the variable component of the remuneration of the Chief Executive Ofcer deriving from the MBO Plan on total annual remuneration represents a variable percentage equal to approximately 46% of total annual remuneration.
EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS (NOT KMS)
Marco Scagliarini, executive director and Deputy Chairman of the Energy & Mobility Division, is entitled to receive an incentive on an annual basis, the amount of which is commensurate with the achievement of the annual Group Performance target, the Individual Performance Objectives related to the performance of the Energy & Mobility Division, as well as the strategic annual objectives, as indicated below:
| Name | Annual Group Performance Objectives |
Group Strategic Annual Objectives |
Individual Performance Objectives |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marco Scagliarini | 30% | 20% | 50% |

In particular, the Group's Annual Performance Objective is linked to the result of two fnancial parameters, each with the weighting shown in the diagram below:
| Group Annual Performance Objective | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Weight EBITDA objective (Organic) |
Weight Turnover objective (Organic) |
||
| Marco Scagliarini | 25% | 5% |
The achievement of the target result is therefore linked to the attainment of the Adjusted EBITDA Target (Organic) and the Turnover Target (Organic) within thresholds defned according to the diagram below.
| % Achievement of target Turnover |
% Achievement of objective |
% Achievement of EBITDA target |
% Achievement of objective |
|---|---|---|---|
| < 88 % | 0 % | < 89 % | 0 % |
| 88 % | 33 % | 89 % | 33 % |
| 100 % | 100 % | 100 % | 100 % |
| 112 % | 150% | 108% | 150% |
The target achievement value is tied to the actual % of achievement identifed by linear interpolation.
In addition, the MBO component linked to the achievement of the Annual Strategic Objectives and the Individual Performance Objectives is determined on the basis of the percentage of actual achievement of the same.
In any case, the amount of the MBO to be paid annually may not exceed Euro 375,000.
RATIO OF MBO COMPONENT TO TOTAL REMUNERATION
The incidence of the variable component of the remuneration of the Director Marco Scagliarini deriving from the MBO Plan on total annual remuneration represents a variable percentage equal to approximately 50% of total annual remuneration.
KM MBO PLAN
Key Managers are benefciaries of an incentive plan known as management by objectives (the "KM MBO Plan") pursuant to which such persons are entitled to receive an annual incentive whose amount is commensurate upon achieving (i) annual Adjusted EBITDA (Organic) and Group Turnover (Organic) objectives; (ii) the achievement of Individual Performance Objectives; and (iii) the achievement of Group Strategic Annual Objectives.
The weight of the collective fnancial indicators, collective strategic objectives and individual objectives is broken down as follows:
| Name | Annual Group Performance Objectives |
Group Strategic Annual Objectives |
Individual Performance Objectives |
|---|---|---|---|
| Matteo Viola | 50% | 20% | 30% |
| Mario Saccone | 50% | 20% | 30% |
| Paola Musuraca | 50% | 20% | 30% |

| Luca Zanini | 30% | 20% | 50% |
| Pierre Dizier | 30% | 20% | 50% |
In particular, the Group's Annual Performance Objective is linked to the result of two fnancial parameters, each with the weighting shown in the diagram below:
| Group Annual Performance Objective | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Name | Weight EBITDA objective (Organic) |
Weight Turnover objective (Organic) |

| Luca Querzè | 25% | 25% | ||
| Luca Zanini | 25% | 5% | ||
| Pierre Dizier | 25% | 5% |
The achievement of the target result is therefore linked to the attainment of the Adjusted EBITDA Target (Organic) and the Turnover Target (Organic) within thresholds defned according to the diagram below.
| % Achievement of target Turnover |
% Achievement of objective |
% Achievement of EBITDA target |
% Achievement of objective |
|---|---|---|---|

| 100 % | 100 % | 100 % | 100 % |
| 112 % | 150% | 108% | 150% |
The target achievement value is tied to the actual % of achievement identifed by linear interpolation.
In addition, the MBO component linked to the achievement of the Annual Strategic Objectives and the Individual Performance Objectives is determined on the basis of the percentage of actual achievement of the same.
In any case, the amount of the MBO to be paid annually may not result in an outlay of more than 150% of the amount of the annual RAL of each KM.

RATIO OF MBO COMPONENT TO TOTAL REMUNERATION
The incidence of the variable component of the remuneration of each of the executive directors and Key Managers Mario Saccone and Matteo Viola and the other KMs deriving from the KM MBO Plan on the total annual remuneration due to them is shown below:
| Name | % incidence of MBO target on annual total remuneration |
|---|---|
| Matteo Viola | 49% |
| Mario Saccone | 48% |
| Paola Musuraca | 32% |
| Luca Querzè | 31% |
| Luca Zanini | 50% |

(I) Criteria used to assess the achievement of performance objectives underlying the granting of shares, options, other fnancial instruments or other variable components of remuneration and the extent of the variable component to be paid according to the level of achievement of such objectives
With regard to the variable component of the remuneration of executive directors and Key Managers deriving from the Directors MBO Plan and the KM MBO Plan, the assessment of performance and communication of the degree of achievement of the objectives assigned as well as determination of the amount of the variable component of remuneration payable to the person concerned takes place after approval of the consolidated fnancial statements by the Board of Directors, subject to assessment by the Appointments and Remuneration Committee.
With regard to the variable component of the remuneration of executive directors and Key Managers deriving from the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan, the Board of Directors, subject to the opinion of the Appointments and Remuneration Committee, will determine the methods and timing for defning and verifying the performance targets envisaged, communicating the achievement or non-achievement of the said targets to each benefciary also through the relevant corporate functions. The actual vesting of the right to receive shares under the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan is subject, in addition to the expiry of the vesting period, to the achievement of targets at a consolidated level in terms of Earnings per Share, Cash Conversion and Total Shareholder Return.
For details on the extent of the variable component, see paragraph F) above.
(J) Information aimed at highlighting the contribution of the Remuneration Policy to the company's strategy, the pursuit of the company's long-term interests and the sustainability of the company
As described in paragraphs E) and F) above, the Remuneration Policy pursues the creation of value in the medium-long term for the Company and its shareholders. In line with that purpose, the remuneration of Executive Directors and Key Managers is structured in such a way as to:
-
a) balance the fxed remuneration and variable remuneration with the objective of creating sustainable value in the medium/long-term for the Company;
b) coordinate the variable remuneration, linking it to the achievement of operative and fnancial and non-fnancial objectives, aligned with the creation of value over the medium/long-term and the efective results achieved by the Company;
c) recognise suitable remuneration to attract, motivate and withhold in the medium/ long-term, persons with the individual and professional qualities necessary to pursue the business objectives and assure business growth over the medium/long-term.
(K) Vesting periods and deferred payment systems and ex post correction mechanisms of the variable component
The 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan provides for the grant to benefciaries of a conditional, free of charge, non-transferable right by inter vivos deed to receive, at the end of a vesting period set at 31 December 2022 up to a maximum of a total of 1,200,000 ordinary shares in the Company, subject to the terms and conditions set out therein.

- other Key Managers: 50% of the shares allocated to other Key Managers are subject to a one-year lock-up.
(M) Policy on benefts in the event of resignation or termination of employment
At the date of the Report, with the exception of the severance indemnity provided for in Article 2120 of the Civil Code and the Confapi National Collective Bargaining Agreement for Industrial Executives, and except as indicated below, there are no contracts in place between members of the Board of Directors, Board of Auditors and other Key Managers and the Company or its subsidiaries that provide for the payment of severance indemnities.
It should be noted that each of the directors, Marco Scagliarini and Massimo Scagliarini entitled to a termination indemnity of 20% of Euro 119,000.00 for Massimo Scagliarini and Euro 118,000.00 for Marco Scagliarini, for each year of their mandate. The Chairman of the Board of Directors, Grazia Valentini, is entitled to an end-of-term indemnity of 20% of Euro 33,000.00 for each year of term of ofce. With efect from 19 June 2020, following the listing, the Issuer ceased to make provisions to service the termination indemnity for Grazia Valentini. Therefore, in the event of the termination of her position as director, Grazia Valentini will be entitled to a severance indemnity in an amount equal to the total amounts set aside in the fnancial statements to service the severance indemnity in her favour until the Trading Start Date.
With reference to the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan, the termination of the ofce, or the termination of the employment contract, may have the following efects:
- following a so-called good leaver event (voluntary resignation, consensual termination, death or disability, under the terms indicated in the Regulations of the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan) during the vesting period or in any case before the delivery of the shares, the benefciary (or heirs) will maintain the right to receive a pro-rata amount of shares corresponding to the pro-rata amount of the rights to receive shares assigned before the termination of the contract with the Company. In this case, the verifcation of the level of achievement of the objectives will be carried out with reference to the latest approved fnancial statements and the pro-rata will be determined using the fscal year as the unit of calculation;
- following the occurrence of a bad leaver event (all termination events other than good leaver events) during the vesting period or, in any case, before the delivery of the shares, the benefciary will defnitively and fully lose the right to receive the shares assigned.
In the event of transfer of the relationship to another Group company and/or in the event of termination of the relationship and simultaneous establishment of a new relationship within the Group, on the other hand, the benefciary will retain, mutatis mutandis, all rights assigned.
At the date of the Report, GVS has not entered into any contracts which envisage the assignment or maintenance of non-monetary benefts or the stipulation of consultancy contracts for a period subsequent to the termination of the relationship.
(N) Information on the existence of additional, non-mandatory insurance, welfare or
pension provisions
As noted in paragraph G) above, non-monetary benefts may include supplementary health cover other than mandatory health cover.
(O) Remuneration policy applied for: (i) independent directors, (ii) participation in committees and (iii) performance of particular duties
In accordance with the recommendations of the Corporate Governance Code, the remuneration of non-executive directors is not linked to the economic results achieved by the Company.
The Remuneration Policy envisages the attribution of an additional fxed fee to Non-Executive Directors and Independent Directors who are part of Board Committees, to suitably remunerate the additional work and commitment they carry out and assure to the beneft of the Company.
For more information and for information about the remuneration of Directors assigned specifc duties, please refer to the description given in paragraph F) above.

The Global Grading System methodology certifed internationally by Willis Towers Watson was used to review KMs compensation. The values contained in Willis Towers Watson's "2021 General Industry Total Rewards Survey - Italy", which includes a panel of 330 industrial companies, were used as market references.
For the defnition of the MBO Plan, an independent benchmark was carried out by Willis Towers Watson concerning the indicators in the MBO systems in terms of type and weight of the indicators. Two panels of companies were referenced: (i) Italian members of the reference panel mentioned above as the Peer Group for the remuneration policy and (ii) international industry panel (which also includes some of the Company's competitors).

(Q) Elements of the remuneration policy which may be waived in exceptional circumstances and the relevant procedural conditions under which the waiver may be applied
GVS looks unfavourably on the possibility of making exceptions to the elements that make up the Remuneration Policy. However, if there are exceptional circumstances (as defned by art. 123-ter of the CFA), such as, for example, the need to attract and retain people with the skills and professional qualities required to manage the Company successfully, as well as the need to motivate these people in relation to specifc KPIs which may be of signifcant importance in virtue of contingent circumstances, the Company considers it appropriate that it may proceed, without prejudice to the provisions of Consob Regulation no. 17221 of 12 March 2010, applying, in this case, the provisions of the procedure adopted by GVS on the subject of transactions with related parties.
Such exceptions may concern, inter alia (a) the attribution of an annual bonus (in substitution or in addition to those already provided for by the Policy) linked to performance objectives and quantitative parameters diferent from those set forth in the Policy as well as (b) the adoption of an incentive system diferent from the 2020-2022 Performance Share Plan.

In the presence of the aforementioned circumstances, the Appointments and Remuneration Committee is called upon to express its opinion before the Board of Directors, which resolves on the derogation.
2. Remuneration Policy of the Board of Auditors
The remuneration of the Board of Auditors is commensurate with the competence, professionalism, commitment required, the importance of the role covered as well as the size and sector characteristics of the Company, in line with Recommendation 30 of the Corporate Governance Code.
On 13 March 2020, the Ordinary Shareholders' Meeting, with efect subject to the condition precedent of the start of trading, resolved to appoint new members of the Board of Auditors and set the gross annual compensation payable to the Board of Auditors, which has been increased during the Shareholders' Meeting held on 27 April 2021 and which was, at the date of this Policy, set as a total of Euro 95,000.00, all-inclusive, broken down as follows: (a) for the Chairman of the Board of Auditors: Euro 35,000.00 and (b) for each Regular Auditor: Euro 30,000.00.
In view of the Company's size, organisational structure and the overall remuneration paid to the Company's non-executive Directors for the work performed both within the Board of Directors and on its internal committees, the remuneration of the members of the Board of Auditors is substantially adequate and proportionate to the commitment required of the members of the Board of Auditors in attending meetings of the Board of Directors and its internal committees.

This Section II, which in turn is structured into two Parts, provides a named indication of the remuneration assigned to the administrative and auditing bodies and, in aggregate form, the remuneration of Key Managers paid during the year.
In compliance with Annex 3A, Scheme 7-bis of the Consob Issuers' Regulation, the remuneration of Key Managers is specifed in aggregate form insofar as none received a comprehensive remuneration during the fnancial year that exceeded the higher comprehensive remuneration attributed to Directors.
Part One - Items Making Up The Remuneration
Part One of Section II provides an adequate, clear and understandable representation of the items that make up remuneration.
The items comprising the remuneration are detailed in Table 1, as per Annex 3A, Scheme 7-bis, of the Consob Issuers' Regulation, given in the appendix to Part II of this Section.
1.1 Composition of remuneration
